Fueled in no small part by social media, the last few years have seen the emergence of a young and dedicated scene dedicated to the so-called queer tattoo. This specific but growing community has emerged from a desire to break with the hierarchical and patriarchal structures of traditional tattooing and create safe, tolerant and inclusive spaces where queer, non-binary and trans people can experiment with individual styles and techniques outside the mainstream.
Numerous tattoo artists:in their work liberate themselves from destructive, heteronormative and capitalist beauty norms and, with their imagery, break away from the long tradition of cultural appropriation in the traditional tattoo scene. Their designs reveal a unique and creative sense of queer iconography.
This book is the first comprehensive presentation of this vibrant and diverse queer tattoo community. Presented are 50 international tattoo artists:inside, introduced through extensive portraits, texts, and photo spreads.
